1 I beseech{G3870}{(G5719)} you{G5209} therefore{G3767}, brethren{G80}, by{G1223} the mercies{G3628} of God{G2316}, that ye present{G3936}{(G5658)} your{G5216} bodies{G4983} a living{G2198}{(G5723)} sacrifice{G2378}, holy{G40}, acceptable{G2101} unto God{G2316}, which is your{G5216} reasonable{G3050} service{G2999}.

2 And{G2532} be{G4964} not{G3361} conformed{G4964}{(G5728)} to this{G5129} world{G165}: but{G235} be ye transformed{G3339}{(G5744)} by the renewing{G342} of your{G5216} mind{G3563}, that{G1519} ye{G5209} may prove{G1381}{(G5721)} what{G5101} is that good{G18}, and{G2532} acceptable{G2101}, and{G2532} perfect{G5046}, will{G2307} of God{G2316}.

3 For{G1063} I say{G3004}{(G5719)}, through{G1223} the grace{G5485} given{G1325}{(G5685)} unto me{G3427}, to every man{G3956} that is{G5607}{(G5752)} among{G1722} you{G5213}, not{G3361} to think of himself more{G3844} highly{G5252}{(G5721)} than{G3739} he ought{G1163}{(G5748)} to think{G5426}{(G5721)}; but{G235} to think{G5426}{(G5721)} soberly{G1519}{G4993}{(G5721)}, according as{G5613} God{G2316} hath dealt{G3307}{(G5656)} to every man{G1538} the measure{G3358} of faith{G4102}.

4 For{G1063} as{G2509} we have{G2192}{(G5719)} many{G4183} members{G3196} in{G1722} one{G1520} body{G4983}, and{G1161} all{G3956} members{G3196} have{G2192}{(G5719)} not{G3756} the same{G846} office{G4234}:

5 So{G3779} we{G2070}, being many{G4183}, are{G2070}{(G5748)} one{G1520} body{G4983} in{G1722} Christ{G5547}, and{G1161} every{G2596} one{G1520} members{G3196} one of another{G240}.

6 Having{G2192}{(G5723)} then{G1161} gifts{G5486} differing{G1313} according{G2596} to the grace{G5485} that is given{G1325}{(G5685)} to us{G2254}, whether{G1535} prophecy{G4394}, let us prophesy according{G2596} to the proportion{G356} of faith{G4102};

7 Or{G1535} ministry{G1248}, let us wait on{G1722} our ministering{G1248}: or{G1535} he that teacheth{G1321}{(G5723)}, on{G1722} teaching{G1319};

8 Or{G1535} he that exhorteth{G3870}{(G5723)}, on{G1722} exhortation{G3874}: he that giveth{G3330}{(G5723)}, let him do it with{G1722} simplicity{G572}; he that ruleth{G4291}{(G5734)}, with{G1722} diligence{G4710}; he that sheweth mercy{G1653}{(G5723)}, with{G1722} cheerfulness{G2432}.

9 Let love{G26}{(G5753)} be without dissimulation{G505}. Abhor{G655}{(G5723)} that which is evil{G4190}; cleave{G2853}{(G5746)} to that which is good{G18}.

10 Be kindly affectioned{G5387} one to another{G1519}{G240} with brotherly love{G5360}; in honour{G5092} preferring{G4285}{(G5740)} one another{G240};

11 Not{G3361} slothful{G3636} in business{G4710}; fervent{G2204}{(G5723)} in spirit{G4151}; serving{G1398}{(G5723)} the Lord{G2962};

12 Rejoicing{G5463}{(G5723)} in hope{G1680}; patient{G5278}{(G5723)} in tribulation{G2347}; continuing instant{G4342}{(G5723)} in prayer{G4335};

13 Distributing{G2841}{(G5723)} to the necessity{G5532} of saints{G40}; given{G1377}{(G5723)} to hospitality{G5381}.

14 Bless{G2127}{(G5720)} them which persecute{G1377}{(G5723)} you{G5209}: bless{G2127}{(G5720)}, and{G2532} curse{G2672}{(G5737)} not{G3361}.

15 Rejoice{G5463}{(G5721)} with{G3326} them that do rejoice{G5463}{(G5723)}, and{G2532} weep{G2799}{(G5721)} with{G3326} them that weep{G2799}{(G5723)}.

16 Be of the same{G846} mind{G5426}{(G5723)} one toward another{G1519}{G240}. Mind{G5426}{(G5723)} not{G3361} high things{G5308}, but{G235} condescend{G4879}{(G5734)} to men of low estate{G5011}. Be{G1096}{(G5737)} not{G3361} wise{G5429} in{G3844} your own conceits{G1438}.

17 Recompense{G591}{(G5723)} to no man{G3367} evil{G2556} for{G473} evil{G2556}. Provide{G4306}{(G5734)} things honest{G2570} in the sight{G1799} of all{G3956} men{G444}.

18 If{G1487} it be possible{G1415}, as much as lieth in{G1537} you{G5216}, live peaceably{G1514}{(G5723)} with{G3326} all{G3956} men{G444}.

19 Dearly beloved{G27}, avenge{G1556}{(G5723)} not{G3361} yourselves{G1438}, but{G235} rather give{G1325}{(G5628)} place{G5117} unto wrath{G3709}: for{G1063} it is written{G1125}{(G5769)}, Vengeance{G1557} is mine{G1698}; I{G1473} will repay{G467}{(G5692)}, saith{G3004}{(G5719)} the Lord{G2962}.

20 Therefore{G3767} if{G1437} thine{G4675} enemy{G2190} hunger{G3983}{(G5725)}, feed{G5595}{(G5720)} him{G846}; if{G1437} he thirst{G1372}{(G5725)}, give{G4222} him{G846} drink{G4222}{(G5720)}: for{G1063} in so{G5124} doing{G4160}{(G5723)} thou shalt heap{G4987}{(G5692)} coals{G440} of fire{G4442} on{G1909} his{G846} head{G2776}.

21 Be{G3528} not{G3361} overcome{G3528}{(G5744)} of{G5259} evil{G2556}, but{G235} overcome{G3528}{(G5720)} evil{G2556} with{G1722} good{G18}.
